Baking, Eating and Dutch stuff

Gevulde Speculaas

The Dutch celebrate Saint Nikolaus (Sinterklaas) on the 5th of December, which is kind of like Christmas. This is the day everyone receives presents and eats too much delicious food. One of those delicious treats is gevulde speculaas (which I can’t translate I’m afraid). It is like a spicy cake, with spicy I mean spices like cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and all those Christmasy flavours. The filling is made of an almond sugar mixture, which here I have replaced with dates and almonds to make it more healthy :p
This is one of my favourite treats, which I end up making all year round.
